7 or 8 weeks?
What do you think....

Is it ok to send the kittens to their new homes at 7 or 8 weeks?

They will be 6 weeks old this Saturday- I think I'm going to go back and count again. I read anywhere from 6-8 weeks.

The kittens still eat of their mom at times- but also are litter trained and eat out regular cat food and milk.

Some kittens continue to nurse almost into adulthood. If mama is available, they'll keep doing it. I would say if your kittens can eat solid food and are litterbox trained, they are ready to go to their new homes.

Yes, I would have to agree. They are ready when they can eat and pop on their own.

My best wishes to little Jack in his new home! Smile I know it's a little sad for you to give him away, but he will be happy there and taken good care of. You did a great job raising him and finding him a nice home!
